Hi everyone!! Β
My goodness but it has been quite a while since I have posted anything here on my blog! Β It has been for good reason, and I’ll explain that a little later on, but boy, is it wonderful to be back!!! Β Not to mention that the warmer weather is finally, and I mean FINALLY, starting to show up! Β I don’t know if any of you have been suffering for want of warmth like us in the northeast, but it has been a most painfully long, cold spring so far. Β I have found that the older I get the more the drab, rainy, and cloudy spring days get to me…but I guess I’ll worry about that depressing future another day!
So where have I been? Β I looked the other day and saw that I haven’t posted since December! Β Yikes!?!? Β I by no means intended to take such a long break from blogging…it just sort of happened. Β I, like many of us, got caught up in the busyness of the holidays and the start of the new year. Β A wonderful influx of custom orders with limited sewing time compounded the issue. Β And then there was the fact that I had a little baby girl who struggled sleeping at night. Β Between night feedings, midnight crying sessions, and one whopper of a cold for the whole family, Β I spent my days just trying to function. Β There were times when I tried to sit down in front of the computer and write, but the words just got stuck. Β I realized that I had to be relaxed and rested to write otherwise I was just staring at the computer screen watching the precious minutes of a nap tick away with nothing to show for it. Β So I just let the block stay as it wanted and focused on enjoying mommy-hood and sewing for my daughter as well as my business. Β Two things that really kept me sane and provided a much needed creative outlet.
Well, as of a week ago we have successfully weened off of night feeds (a little late for many babies, but right and proper for my now ten month old little nugget) and a full night sleep has been added back into my day. Β I’m still enjoying the novelty of not having to get up every three hours…its wonderful! π Β And as a result I have found the rest greatly increased my desire to write and create blog posts again.
So I’m back with a goal of trying to post four times a month. Β A goal mind you. Β π Β I have found that with many creative aspects of my life, to just relax and embrace the dry times as much as I do the days when creativity oozes out of my fingertips!
So thank you for your patience and your continued support and readership!
Have a wonderful day my friends!
